KILL, BABY KILL (1966) pt.9/9 ~ Giacomo Rossi-Stuart, Erika Blanc, Mario Bava OPERAZIONE PAURA

OPERAZIONE PAURA in Italia, this film is known as KILL, BABY KILL! in the U.S. Unfortunately, this public domain print, formatted for television distribution in the 1960s doesn't do justice to the use of vivid primary colors by director and cinematographer Mario Bava, but it doesn't fail to deliver the tension and moody surrealism of the original edit.

Fabienne Dali, Piero Lulli, Luciano Catenacci, Micaela Esdra, Valerio Valeri

Directed by Mario Bava

Written by Mario Bava, Romano Migliorini and Roberto Natale

Cinematography by Antonio Rinaldi

Excellent, moody horror film. Some of the shots are not only sensible, but strikingly symbolic before one realizes it.

I love that final shot of them walking into the forest like Hansel and Gretal.
